Checking on the status of my renewal credit card. The automated voice system says, and I kid you not, that my replacement card was shipped on "NaN date" to an address that consisted of 20 seconds of total silence.

(For non-programmers: NaN = Not-a-Number, it's when you put some value into a number variable that is simply not ... such as 1 divided by zero).

Did the service spell it out (“not a number”), say it letter by letter (“en-ay-en”), or try to pronounce it as an actual word (like “naan”, the Indian bread, or like the middle of “banana”)?

@dpnash @jkohlmann It said it letter by letter I believe. It was a date field, too, so there are several concerns one might have there.
